[OOC] Pokemon Spiral

[OtomostheCrazy]

I don't know whether to try the match now, or wait until I have her walk up. And no. She ain't doing that. She's not that past her snobbiness yet.

[Heckno12]

@LuckyBlackCatI wasn't exactly sure how to end it to be honest.

@OtomostheCrazy Whenever you decide to, just let me or LuckyBlackCat know.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@OtomostheCrazy You can challenge the gym at any time, but Alexis has just had a glimpse of how tough the gym leader is... Then again, she's Alexis.

@Heckno12 Yay, first gym battle of this RP! I hope returning Purrloin right at the end didn't come across as too out of character. It's just that Sophia has already let her pride issues get Pokemon hurt (the incident with Alexis), and she doesn't want to do that again.

That was probably the smartest thing she did in the entire battle.

[Heckno12]

@LuckyBlackCat It certainly made sense given what had happened before. It may be good to remember who's likely to be in the area now...hint, Ray, hint.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Heckno12 I was thinking she could run into a certain somebody else first. Someone she thought she'd gotten away from.

[Heckno12]

@LuckyBlackCat It's funny that I considered having Rheese chase after Sophia after the battle to see if she was alright, but with that idea of yours I'm a bit glad I didn't.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Heckno12 Oh yeah. Last thing Rheese would need.

How many levels do Pokemon get from gym battles? I'm thinking 1 for a loss, 2 for a victory. Does that work?

That reminds me...

@fer1323 I saw your updated CS. Just a reminder that our Pokemon got 2 levels each for the grunt battle, as the opposing Pokemon were higher level than ours. So, your Torchic is lv10, and your Growlithe and Eevee are both lv8.

[fer1323]

@LuckyBlackCat Okay thanks. my post is up for you and I think Sophia needs a friend.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 Ok, will be able to reply later.

@Heckno12 So I was thinking of ways to make it easier for people to keep track of stuff like levels and inventory.

In this other RP I'm in, Pokemon New World, people put notes at the end of their posts, like this:

Notes

Pokemon Party: Bulbasaur lv10, Charmander lv10, Squirtle lv10
Pokemon in PC:
Inventory: Pokeball x3, Potion x1

It could be copied and pasted, and frequently updated. Obviously we'd still edit character sheets with more complicated stuff like movesets, but that would make updating easier to do.

[fer1323]

@LuckyBlackCat@Heckno12What level is my Ralts? lvl 5?

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 It just has to be at most a similar level to your other Pokemon. So your Ralts could be any level up to 10.

[fer1323]

@LuckyBlackCatThanks. I am going to make him lvl 9 so my team is a bit balanced.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 Yeah, that fits with your others.

Sophia will be able to teach Oscar a little about training Psychic types. She may only have one at the moment, but she grew up around Psychic type Pokemon.

I'm making a start on my post. What do you think of the suggested notes format? Would that make things easier?

[fer1323]

@LuckyBlackCat I think it is a necessary admin. It is helpful since it makes the rp more fair on the GM and players if they manage and update their CS's and inventory every so often. It also helps so you do not have to dig around, finding what was used and given. That is why I am updating my CS so much and even more later.

[OtomostheCrazy]

...Oh boy, I'm just...Yippee Skippee, Imma get rekt aren't I?

So...Yeah, I'm ready whenever you are Heckno.

EDIT: Also, what level do you think the Helioptile that Deneb caught earlier outside of the city would be. I put it on a default lv 5, but I wanted to get your thought.

[Heckno12]

@OtomostheCrazy You could have it up to level 10, but no higher. I'd honestly suggest 8 or so.

Also, I have time for a battle. You could also get Cat to do it when she's on, I'm sure she'd enjoy doing the battle against Alexis.

[OtomostheCrazy]

I think that's a good Idea. How long until she shows up again? She's usually not on around this time of day.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Heckno12 Would the notes system be helpful?

Also, I think I'll add just one level to each of Sophia's Pokemon, seeing as they didn't win (a victory would have been two levels each, right?) and I want her to actually train. Is that ok?

[LuckyBlackCat]

@OtomostheCrazy Yeah, I'll do the battle if you want.

[OtomostheCrazy]

@LuckyBlackCat

Yay!
